Equilateral triangles, squares, and regular hexagons

(each fit together on its own/by itself)

These are the only shapes that fit together on their own

You can also make combinations like :

  • octagons and squares
  • hexagons and triangles

Which 3D shapes fit together if any?

There are several 3D shapes that fit together to form larger structures. Some examples include cubes, which fit together to create a larger cube, and tetrahedrons, which can be arranged to form larger tetrahedron structures. Additionally, octahedrons and icosahedrons can be combined to create larger shapes as well.


What is the name of a polygon when you put 3 diamond shapes together?

In general, if they fit together without gaps or overlaps at the centre, the resulting shape will be a convex nonagon. If, in addition, the three diamond shapes are congruent then the shape is a regular hexagon.


Can a square be tessellated?

Yes, a square can be tessellated. Tessellation involves covering a surface with a pattern of one or more geometric shapes without any gaps or overlaps. Since squares can fit together perfectly in a grid-like arrangement, they easily create a tessellated pattern. This property makes squares one of the simplest shapes to use in tessellation.


Why is shapes important?

Proteins catalyze chemical reactions by bringing them together in the right orientation and helping them react together. If they have the wrong shape they cannot do this. This is because with the wrong shape, the pieces will not fit together properly.


How many shapes fit into a circle?

Infinite shapes can fit into a circle. This is because a circle can be considered a 2D surface and there are an infinite number of possible shapes that can be created within that surface, such as triangles, squares, pentagons, and so on.
